Contextual Overview

¹⁸ And a certain ruler put a question to him, saying, Good Master, what have I to do so that I may have eternal life? ¹⁹ And Jesus said to him, Why do you say that I am good? No one is good, but only God. ²⁰ You have knowledge of what the law says: Do not be untrue to your wife, Do not put anyone to death, Do not take what is not yours, Do not give false witness, Give honour to your father and mother. ²¹ And he said, All these things I have done from the time when I was a boy. ²² And Jesus, hearing it, said to him, One thing you still have need of; get money for your goods, and give it away to the poor, and you will have wealth in heaven; and come after me. ²³ But at these words he became very sad, for he had great wealth. ²⁴ And Jesus, looking at him, said, How hard it is for those who have wealth to get into the kingdom of God! ²⁵ It is simpler for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a man who has much money to come into the kingdom of God. ²⁶ And those who were present said, Then who may have salvation? ²⁷ But he said, Things which are not possible with man are possible with God.

"To him", as the Syriac and Arabic versions add; that is, to the Lord Jesus, as the Ethiopic version expresses it; who was always the most forward to speak on any occasion: he observing what was required of the young man, and how unwilling he was to comply with it, and the difficulty in every rich man's way of entrance into the kingdom of God, spoke as follows;

lo, we have left all: the Arabic version reads, "all ours"; all we had, our friends, trades, and worldly substance;

and followed thee: in Matthew 19:27 it is added, "what shall we have therefore"; referring to the promise of Christ, to the young man, that should he sell all he had, and give it to the poor, he should have treasure in heaven; Matthew 19:27- :.
